NAME

       XmSpinBox — The SpinBox widget class "XmSpinBox" "widget class" "SpinBox"

SYNOPSIS

       #include <Xm/SpinB.h>

DESCRIPTION

SpinBox allows the user to select a value from a ring of related but mutually exclusive
choices which are displayed in sequence. The SpinBox always has an increment arrow, a
decrement arrow, and one or more other children. The choices are displayed, one at a
time, in a traversable text child ( XmText or XmTextField. The user clicks <Btn1> on an
arrow to display the next (or previous) item in the ring of choices. By pressing and
holding <Btn1> on an arrow, the user continuously cycles through the choices.

The traversable children in a SpinBox can be of type XmNUMERIC or XmSTRING, as defined by
the XmNspinBoxChildType constraint resource. The ring of choices for numeric children is
defined by minimum, maximum, incremental, and decimal point values. The ring of choices
for string children is defined in an array of compound strings.

The application programmer can include multiple traversable children in the SpinBox. For
example, a SpinBox might consist of a pair of arrows and month, day, and year text fields.
The arrows only spin the child that currently has focus.

Arrow size is specified by the SpinBox resource XmNarrowSize. This value sets both width
and height of each arrow in pixels.

The programmer can display SpinBox arrows in one of several layouts, as specified by the
XmNarrowLayout resource:

XmARROWS_BEGINNING
Places a pair of left and right arrows before the children.

XmARROWS_END
Places a pair of left and right arrows after the children.

XmARROWS_SPLIT
Places one arrow on each side of the children.

XmARROWS_FLAT_BEGINNING
Places a pair of arrows side by side before the XmSpinBox children.

XmARROWS_FLAT_BEGINNING
Places a pair of arrows side by side after the XmSpinBox children.

Positions for XmARROWS_BEGINNING and XmARROWS_END are dependent on the VendorShell
resource XmNlayoutDirection. When layout direction is left-to-right, beginning arrows are
positioned to the left of the children. When layout direction is right-to-left, beginning
arrows are positioned to the right.

The actions of the arrows are determined by the VendorShell resource XmNlayoutDirection.
For left-to-right layouts, the right arrow is the increment arrow and the left arrow is
the decrement arrow. For right-to-left layouts, the right arrow is the decrement arrow and
the left arrow is the increment arrow.

For a numeric type child, the increment arrow increases the displayed value by the
incremental value up to the maximum. The decrement arrow decreases the displayed value by
the given incremental value down to the minimum.

The increment arrow for a string type child moves toward the last entry of the array of
compound strings (by increasing the SpinBox constraint resource XmNposition). The
decrement arrow moves toward the first entry of the compound string array.

The programmer can also control the sensitivity of each arrow in the SpinBox. Sensitive
arrows spin choices; insensitive arrows do not spin choices. Arrow sensitivity is set for
the SpinBox widget by using the XmNdefaultArrowSensitivity resource, but it can be
modified on a per child basis by using the XmNarrowSensitivity constraint resource.

SpinBox provides two callbacks to application programmers. (In addition, the callbacks of
the SpinBox's children may be invoked.) Each of these callbacks receives a pointer to
XmSpinBoxCallbackStruct. The XmNmodifyVerifyCallback procedures are called before a new
choice is displayed. The XmNvalueChangedCallback procedures are called after a new choice
is displayed.

XmNmodifyVerifyCallback tells the application what the new position will be in the ring of
choices. This callback can be used to make the SpinBox stop at the upper and lower limits
or go to a different, nonconsecutive choice. The application allows the change in position
by leaving the doit member set to True. The application can spin to a position other than
the next consecutive position by leaving doit set to True and by changing the position
member to the desired position. When doit is set to False by an application, there is no
change in the choice displayed.

After a new choice is displayed, the XmNvalueChangedCallback procedure is called. The
application can use this procedure to perform tasks when specific values are reached or
when boundaries are crossed. For example, if the user spins from January back to December,
the application could change to the previous year. If the user spins from December to
January, the application could change to the next year.

SpinBox dimensions can be set using the Core resources XmNheight and XmNwidth. If
dimensions are not specified, the SpinBox size is determined by the sizes of its arrows
and children. The SpinBox will attempt to grow so that the arrows and all children are
visible.

SpinBox uses the XmQTaccessTextual trait and holds the XmQTnavigator trait.

Classes
SpinBox inherits behavior, resources, and traits from the Core, Composite, Constraint, and
XmManager classes.

The class pointer is xmSpinBoxWidgetClass.

The class name is XmSpinBox.

New Resources
The following table defines a set of widget resources used by the programmer to specify
data. The programmer can also set the resource values for the inherited classes to set
attributes for this widget. To reference a resource by name or by class in a .Xdefaults
file, remove the XmN or XmC prefix and use the remaining letters. To specify one of the
defined values for a resource in a .Xdefaults file, remove the Xm prefix and use the
remaining letters (in either lowercase or uppercase, but include any underscores between
words). The codes in the access column indicate whether the given resource can be set at
creation time (C), set by using XtSetValues (S), retrieved by using XtGetValues (G), or is
not applicable (N/A).

XmNarrowLayout
Specifies placement of the two arrows in the widget. Possible layouts are as
follows:

XmARROWS_BEGINNING
Places left and right arrows beside each other, before the child(ren).
Positioning for this layout is dependent on the VendorShell resource
XmNlayoutDirection.

XmARROWS_END
Places left and right arrows beside each other, after the child(ren).
Positioning for this layout is dependent on the VendorShell resource
XmNlayoutDirection.

XmARROWS_FLAT_BEGINNING
Places a pair of arrows side by side before the XmSpinBox children.
Positioning for this layout is dependent on the VendorShell resource
XmNlayoutDirection.

XmARROWS_FLAT_END
Places a pair of arrows side by side after the XmSpinBox children.
Positioning for this layout is dependent on the VendorShell resource
XmNlayoutDirection.

XmARROWS_SPLIT
Places a left arrow on the left side and a right arrow on the right
side of the child(ren).

XmNarrowSize
Specifies both the width and height of the arrow in pixels.

XmNdefaultArrowSensitivity
Specifies the default sensitivity of the arrows in the widget. Insensitive
arrows change color, cannot be depressed, and perform no action. (This resource
may be overridden by the constraint resource XmNarrowSensitivity for individual
traversable text children of the SpinBox.) Possible default sensitivity values
are as follows:

XmARROWS_SENSITIVE
Both arrows are sensitive.

XmARROWS_DECREMENT_SENSITIVE
Only the decrement arrow (as determined by XmNlayoutDirection) is
sensitive. The increment arrow is insensitive.

XmARROWS_INCREMENT_SENSITIVE
Only the increment arrow (as determined by XmNlayoutDirection) is
sensitive. The decrement arrow is insensitive.

XmARROWS_INSENSITIVE
Both arrows are insensitive.

XmNdetailShadowThickness
Specifies the thickness of the inside arrow shadows. The default thickness is 2
pixels.

XmNinitialDelay
Specifies how long, in milliseconds, the mouse button must be held down before
automatic spinning begins. In other words, when the user selects the increment
or decrement arrow and keeps it depressed, this delay occurs before the choices
start spinning. If XmNinitialDelay is 0, then XmNrepeatDelay is used as the
initial delay.

XmNmarginHeight
Specifies the amount of blank space between the top edge of the SpinBox widget
and the first item in each column, and the bottom edge of the SpinBox widget and
the last item in each column.

XmNmarginWidth
Specifies the amount of blank space between the left edge of the SpinBox widget
and the first item in each row, and the right edge of the SpinBox widget and the
last item in each row.

XmNmodifyVerifyCallback
This callback is called before the SpinBox position changes (see the Constraint
resource XmNposition). The application can use this callback to set the next
position, change SpinBox resources, or cancel the impending action. For example,
this callback can be used to stop the spinning just before wrapping at the upper
and lower position boundaries. If the doit member is set to False, nothing
happens. Otherwise the position changes. Reasons sent by the callback are
XmCR_SPIN_NEXT, XmCR_SPIN_PRIOR, XmCR_SPIN_FIRST, or XmCR_SPIN_LAST.

XmNrepeatDelay
When the user selects and keeps an arrow button depressed by pressing and
holding <Btn1>, spinning begins. After the time specified in XmNinitialDelay
elapses, the SpinBox position changes automatically until the arrow button is
released. The XmNrepeatDelay resource specifies the delay in milliseconds
between each automatic change. If XmNrepeatDelay is set to 0 (zero), automatic
spinning is turned off and XmNinitialDelay is ignored.

XmNspacing
Specifies the horizontal and vertical spacing between items contained within the
SpinBox widget.

XmNvalueChangedCallback
This is called n+1 times for n SpinBox position changes (see the Constraint
resource XmNposition). Reasons sent by the callback are XmCR_OK, XmCR_SPIN_NEXT,
XmCR_SPIN_PRIOR, XmCR_SPIN_FIRST, or XmCR_SPIN_LAST. Other members are detailed
in the callback structure description.

XmNarrowSensitivity
Specifies the sensitivity of the arrows for a SpinBox child. By using this
resource in the definition of a SpinBox child, the application programmer can
override the default SpinBox sensitivity (set by XmNdefaultArrowSensitivity) for
a particular child. This allows each traversable child to have a different arrow
sensitivity. The arrow sensitivity values are as follows:

XmARROWS_SENSITIVE
Both arrows are sensitive.

XmARROWS_DECREMENT_SENSITIVE
Only the decrement arrow (as determined by XmNlayoutDirection) is
sensitive.

XmARROWS_INCREMENT_SENSITIVE
Only the increment arrow (as determined by XmNlayoutDirection) is
sensitive.

XmARROWS_INSENSITIVE
Both arrows are insensitive.

XmARROWS_DEFAULT_SENSITIVITY
Use the sensitivity specified in the XmNdefaultArrowSensitivity
resource.

XmNdecimalPoints
Specifies the number of decimal places used when displaying the value of a
SpinBox numeric type child. If the number of decimal places specified is greater
than the number of digits in a displayed value, the value is padded with 0
(zeros). For example, when XmNinitialValue is 1 and XmNmaximumValue is 1000 and
XmNdecimalPoints is 3, the range of values displayed in the SpinBox is 0.001 to
1.000. This is used only when XmNspinBoxChildType is XmNUMERIC.

XmNincrementValue
Specifies the amount by which to increment or decrement a SpinBox numeric type
child. This is used only when XmNspinBoxChildType is XmNUMERIC.

XmNmaximumValue
Specifies the highest possible value for a numeric SpinBox. This is used only
when XmNspinBoxChildType is XmNUMERIC.

XmNminimumValue
Specifies the lowest possible value for a numeric SpinBox. This is used only
when XmNspinBoxChildType is XmNUMERIC.

XmNnumValues
Specifies the number of strings in XmNvalues. The application must change this
value when strings are added or removed from XmNvalues. This is used only when
XmNspinBoxChildType is XmSTRING.

XmNposition
Specifies the position of the currently displayed item. The interpritation of
XmNposition is dependent upon the value of the XmNpositionType resource.

When XmNpositionType is XmPOSITION_INDEX the XmNposition value is interpreted as
follows: For XmSpinBox children of type XmNUMERIC, the XmNposition resource is
interpreted as an index into an array of items. The minimum allowable value for
XmNposition is 0. The maximum allowable value for XmNposition is
(XmNmaximumValue-XmNminimumValue)/XmNincrementValue. The value display by the
XmSpinBox child is XmNminimumValue+(XmNposition*XmNincrementValue). For
XmSpinBox children of type XmSTRING, the XmNposition resource is interpreted as
an index into an array of XmNnumValues items. The minimum allowable value for
XmNposition is 0. The maximum allowable value for XmNposition is XmNnumValues -
1. The value displayed by the XmSpinBox is the XmNposition'th value in the
XmNvalues array.

When XmNpositionType is XmPOSITION_VALUE the XmNposition value is interpreted as
follows:

For XmSpinBox children of type XmNUMERIC, the XmNposition resource is
interpreted as the actual value to be displayed. The minimum allowable value for
XmNposition is XmNminimumValue. The maximum allowable value for XmNposition is
XmNmaximumValue. The value displayed by the XmSpinBox child is XmNposition. For
XmSpinBox children of type XmSTRING, the interpretation is the same for
XmPOSITION_VALUE as for XmPOSITION_INDEX.

Position values falling outside the specified range are invalid. When an
application assigns a value to XmNposition which is less than the minimum,
XmNposition is set to the minimum and an error message is displayed. When an
application assigns a value to XmNposition which is greater than the maximum,
XmNposition is set to the maximum and an error message is displayed.

XmNpositionType
Specifies how values the XmNposition resource are to be interpreted. Valid
values include XmPOSITION_INDEX and XmPOSITION_VALUE.

XmNspinBoxChildType
Specifies the type of data displayed in the child:

XmNUMERIC The SpinBox choice range is defined by numeric minimum, maximum, and
incremental values.

XmSTRING The SpinBox choices are alphanumeric.

XmNvalues Specifies the array of XmStrings to be displayed in a SpinBox string type child.
The application must change XmNnumValues when strings are added to or removed
from XmNvalues. This is used only when XmNspinBoxChildType is XmSTRING.

Callback
A pointer to the following structure is passed to each callback:

typedef struct
{
int reason;
XEvent * event;
Widget widget;
Boolean doit;
int position;
XmString value;
Boolean crossed_boundary;
} XmSpinBoxCallbackStruct;

reason Indicates why the callback was invoked. Reasons may be the following:

XmCR_OK Spinning has stopped because the SpinBox arrow has been disarmed.
XmCR_OK is either the last or only call.

XmCR_SPIN_NEXT
The increment arrow has been armed and position is increasing. Further
callbacks will come. For a numeric type child, the values displayed
are approaching the maximum. For a string SpinBox, the values
displayed are approaching the last entry in the array of XmString s.

XmCR_SPIN_PRIOR
The decrement arrow has been armed and position is decreasing. Further
callbacks will come. For a numeric type child, the values displayed
are approaching the minimum. For a string type child, the values
displayed are approaching the first entry in the array of XmStrings.

XmCR_SPIN_FIRST
The begin data (<osfBeginData>) key sequence has been pressed. The
SpinBox is at its first position, displaying the lowest value or the
first entry in the array of XmStrings.

XmCR_SPIN_LAST
The end data (<osfEndData>) key sequence has been pressed. The
SpinBox is at its last position, displaying the highest value or the
last entry in the array of XmStrings.

event Points to the XEvent that triggered this callback.

widget Specifies the child widget affected by this callback.

doit When the callback is XmNmodifyVerifyCallback, doit indicates whether or not an
action will be performed before the SpinBox position changes. If the callback
leaves doit set to True (the default), the spinning action is performed. If the
callback sets doit to False, the spinning action is not performed. When the
callback is XmNvalueChangedCallback, doit is ignored.

position Specifies the next value of the SpinBox position (same as XmNposition). This is
an output field for the XmNmodifyVerifyCallback, which may change the next
position as dictated by the needs of an application.

value Specifies the new XmString value in the text child widget. The user program must
copy this string if it is to be used outside the callback routine.

crossed_boundary
Specifies whether or not the SpinBox has crossed the upper or lower boundary
(the last or first compound string, or the maximum or minimum value). The
crossed_boundary value is True if the SpinBox has just crossed a boundary, and
False if it has not.

Translations
The XmSpinBox translations are as follows:

The following key names are listed in the X standard key event translation table syntax.
This format is the one used by Motif to specify the widget actions corresponding to a
given key. A brief overview of the format is provided under VirtualBindings(3). For a

Action Routines
The XmSpinBox action routines are as follows:

SpinBArm():
Visually arms the SpinBox by drawing the armed arrow so that it appears to be
depressed. This action is initiated when the user presses <Btn1> while the
pointer is within the boundaries of either the increment or decrement arrow. The
arrow remains visually armed as long as <Btn1> remains depressed.

If the time period specified by XmNrepeatDelay is not greater than zero
milliseconds, nothing else happens while <Btn1> remains depressed.

If the time period specified by XmNrepeatDelay is greater than zero
milliseconds, and the arrow is disarmed before the time period specified by
XmNinitialDelay has elapsed, nothing else happens in this action.

If the time period specified by XmNrepeatDelay is greater than zero
milliseconds, and the arrow is still armed after the time period specified by
XmNinitialDelay has elapsed, the following occurs:

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure,
XmSpinBoxCallbackStruct, is set to XmCR_SPIN_NEXT if the increment arrow
is armed, or to XmCR_SPIN_PRIOR if the decrement arrow is armed.

• The position member is set to the next position.

• The doit member is set to True.

• XmNmodifyVerifyCallback, if it exists, is invoked. The application may
change the value of position and doit. If the application sets doit to
False, nothing else happens until the XmNrepeatDelay period has elapsed,
or until <Btn1> is released.

If doit remains set to True, the following occurs:

• The value of XmNposition is changed to the value of position in the
SpinBox callback structure.

• The text corresponding to the new position is displayed in the traversable
text child that currently has focus.

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to
XmCR_SPIN_NEXT if the increment arrow is armed, or XmCR_SPIN_PRIOR if the
decrement arrow is armed.

• The position member is set to the current (new) value of XmNposition.

• XmNvalueChangedCallback, if it exists, is called. SpinBox ignores any
changes to position or doit members made by XmNvalueChangedCallback.

These events are repeated each time the XmNrepeatDelay period elapses and the
arrow remains armed.

SpinBDisarm():
Visually disarms the SpinBox by drawing the previously armed arrow so that it no
longer appears to be depressed.

If the time period specified by XmNrepeatDelay is not greater than zero
milliseconds, or the time period specified by XmNinitialDelay has not elapsed,
the following then occurs:

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure,
XmSpinBoxCallbackStruct, is set to XmCR_SPIN_NEXT if the increment arrow
is armed, or to XmCR_SPIN_PRIOR if the decrement arrow is armed.

• The position member is set to the next position.

• The doit member is set to True.

• The XmNmodifyVerifyCallback, if there is one, is invoked. The application
may change the value of position and doit. If the application sets doit
to False, nothing else happens until the XmNrepeatDelay period has
elapsed, or until <Btn1> is released.

If doit remains set to True, the following occurs:

• The value of XmNposition is changed to the value of position in the
SpinBox callback structure.

• The text corresponding to the new position is displayed in the traversable
text child that currently has focus.

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to
XmCR_SPIN_NEXT if the increment arrow is armed, or XmCR_SPIN_PRIOR if the
decrement arrow is armed.

• The position member is set to the current (new) value of XmNposition.

• XmNvalueChangedCallback, if it exists, is called. SpinBox ignores any
changes to position or doit members made by an XmNvalueChangedCallback.

If an XmNvalueChangedCallback procedure is issued after the button has been
armed, regardless of the value of XmNrepeatDelay or whether the XmNinitialDelay
has expired:

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to XmCR_OK.

• The position member is set to the current value of XmNposition.

• XmNvalueChangedCallback, if it exists, is called.

SpinBFirst():
The following occurs:

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure,
XmSpinBoxCallbackStruct, is set to XmCR_SPIN_FIRST.

• The position member is set to the first (0) position.

• The doit member is set to True.

If doit remains set to True, the following occurs:

• The value of XmNposition is changed to the value of position in the
SpinBox callback structure.

• The text corresponding to the new position is displayed in the traversable
text child that currently has focus.

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to
XmCR_SPIN_FIRST.

• The position member is set to the current (new) value of XmNposition.

• XmNvalueChangedCallback, if it exists, is called.

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to XmCR_OK.

• The position member is set to the current (new) XmNposition value.

• The XmNvalueChangedCallback is called again. SpinBox ignores any changes
to position or doit members made by XmNvalueChangedCallback.

SpinBLast():
The following occurs:

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure,
XmSpinBoxCallbackStruct, is set to XmCR_SPIN_LAST.

• The position member is set to the last position.

• The doit member is set to True.

If doit remains set to True, the following occurs:

• The value of XmNposition is changed to the value of position in the
SpinBox callback structure.

• The text corresponding to the new position is displayed in the traversable
text child that currently has focus.

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to
XmCR_SPIN_LAST.

• The position member is set to the current (new) value XmNposition.

• XmNvalueChangedCallback, if it exists, is called.

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to XmCR_OK.

• The position member is set to the current (new) of XmNposition.

• XmNvalueChangedCallback is called again. SpinBox ignores any changes to
the position or doit members made by XmNvalueChangedCallback.

SpinBLeft():
If the VendorShell resource XmNlayoutDirection is left-to-right, the SpinBPrior
action is invoked. Otherwise, the SpinBNext action is invoked.

SpinBNext():
Visually arms the SpinBox by drawing the increment arrow so that it appears to
be depressed. The following occurs:

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure,
XmSpinBoxCallbackStruct, is set to XmCR_SPIN_NEXT.

• The position member is set to the next position.

• The doit member is set to True.

If doit remains set to True, the following occurs:

• The value of XmNposition is changed to the value of position in the
SpinBox callback structure.

• The text corresponding to the new position is displayed in the traversable
text child that currently has focus.

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to
XmCR_SPIN_NEXT.

• The position member is set to the current (new) value of XmNposition.

• XmNvalueChangedCallback, if it exists, is called.

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to XmCR_OK.

• The position member is set to the current (new) XmNposition.

• The XmNvalueChangedCallback is called again. SpinBox ignores any changes
to position or doit members made by XmNvalueChangedCallback.

SpinBPrior():
Visually arms the SpinBox by drawing the decrement arrow so that it appears to
be depressed. The following occurs:

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure,
XmSpinBoxCallbackStruct, is set to XmCR_SPIN_PRIOR.

• The position member is set to the next position.

• The doit member is set to True.

If doit remains set to True, the following occurs:

• The value of XmNposition is changed to the value of position in the
SpinBox callback structure.

• The text corresponding to the new position is displayed in the traversable
text child that currently has focus.

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to
XmCR_SPIN_PRIOR.

• The position member is set to the current (new) value of XmNposition.

• XmNvalueChangedCallback, if it exists, is called.

• The reason member of the SpinBox callback structure is set to XmCR_OK.

• The position member is set to the current (new) value of XmNposition.

• XmNvalueChangedCallback is called again. SpinBox ignores any changes to
position or doit members made by XmNvalueChangedCallback.

SpinBRight():
If the VendorShell resource XmNlayoutDirection is left-to-right, the SpinBNext
action is invoked. Otherwise, the SpinBPrior action is invoked.
